The vV̇O 2 max of world class middle- and long-distance runners may exceed 24 km/h or 2:30/km pace (15 mph or about 4:00/mile), making this speed slightly comparable to 3000 m race pace. For many athletes, vV̇O 2 max may be slightly slower than 1500 m or mile race pace. [citation needed]
Known as the ‘no man’s land’ zone, tempo workouts for cyclists do offer some key benefits. Here’s what to know and the smart way to add to your schedule.
Daniels points out the importance of keeping the given pace to reap the benefits of the training.

Examples of tempo-free statistics including the following [3] [4] Pace: Possessions per game (typically ranges from 60 to 75) PPP: Points per possession, the points a team score for each possession regardless of a team's pace; TO%: Turnover percentage, the measure of how often a team loses possession of the ball before creating a scoring ...
A typical 5k runner might consider 8 to 10 miles (13 to 16 km) of LSD, while a marathoner might run 20 miles (32 km) or more. LSD runs are typically done at an easy pace, 1–3 minutes per mile slower than a runner's 10k pace. The objectives of these runs are to build blood volume and to increase muscle strength, endurance, and aerobic fitness.
